Caroline Blackmon Detroit Free Press Published 1:33 p.m. UTC Aug 2, 2018 The Michigan story of two sets of identical twins getting married this weekend went national on Thursday with a stop at NBC’s "Today" show. Krissie and Kassie Bevier, both 24, will marry Zack and Nick Lewan, also 24, in Grass Lake, Michigan — Krissie and Zack on Friday, Kassie and Nick on Saturday. The four will share a reception on Saturday night. Kassie Bevier and Nick Lewan met first, four years ago in a psychology class at Grand Valley State University. The professor asked if there were any twins in the class and they both raised their hand. After that, Kassie said on "Today" they texted for a while before deciding to go on a date. “The first time we hung out, we decided that we would drag them along,” she said, referring to each other's sibling.

Howard Fendrich, Ap Tennis Writer Updated 9:07 am PDT, Thursday, July 12, 2018 LONDON (AP) — Serena Williams has reached her 10th final at Wimbledon, 30th at all Grand Slam tournaments — and first since having a baby a little more than 10 months ago. Williams dominated much of her semifinal Thursday, beating 13th-seeded Julia Goerges of Germany 6-2, 6-4 at Centre Court to close in on what would be an eighth championship at the All England Club and 24th major trophy overall. Williams will face another German, 11th-seeded Angelique Kerber, on Saturday in a rematch of the 2016 final at Wimbledon. Williams won that one for a second consecutive title at the All England Club, before missing the grass-court tournament last year while pregnant. Kerber used a seven-game run to seize control of her semifinal and collect a 6-3, 6-3 victory over the 12th-seeded Ostapenko. ___ window._taboola = window._taboola || []; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbnails-c', … [Read more...] about Serena Williams reaches 10th Wimbledon final with 2-set win

Lindsey Bahr Associated Press Published 9:25 p.m. UTC Jun 17, 2018 Los Angeles – The combined powers of superheroes, the Pixar brand and a draught of family-friendly films helped “Incredibles 2” become the best animated opening of all time, the biggest PG-rated launch ever and the 8th highest film launch overall. Disney estimated Sunday that the film earned $180 million in its first weekend in North American theaters — far surpassing industry analysts’ loftiest expectations which had the film pegged for a $120 to $140 million debut. The previous animation record-holder was another Pixar sequel, “Finding Dory,” which had a $135 million launch in 2016. It was Disney’s live-action “Beauty and the Beast” that held the record for a PG debut with $174.8 million in 2017. “You don’t get to this level of opening without appealing to everyone whether you’re a fan of animation, superheroes or just out to have a … [Read more...] about ‘Incredibles 2’ sets record for animated movie opening

Viet Nam News LOS ANGELES — After a glut of lucrative box office juggernauts from its Marvel Cinematic Universe, Disney is looking to break more records with Incredibles 2, the long-awaited return of a quirky animated superhero family. The film – which comes out on Friday, a full 14 years after The Incredibles – looks set to score the highest debut ever for an animated film at the North American box office. Experts are predicting a US$140 million-plus opening weekend for Brad Bird’s sequel to his own hugely popular original, which would surpass the $135 million debut of its Disney-Pixar stablemate, Finding Dory (2016). "For a very long time, people have been wanting this film," Samuel L. Jackson, who returns as superhero Frozone, told reporters at last week’s glittering premiere in Hollywood. "I think people who saw the film at a certain age have had kids now, and they’re showing them (the original) so they can bring them to this one." In the … [Read more...] about ’Incredibles 2’ set to break more records for Disney

WASHINGTON — Two sets of parents are being sued by the District in separate lawsuits totaling more than $800,000. They’re accused of lying about their Maryland residency in order to send their kids to D.C. schools tuition-free. Two members of the D.C. Police Department — civilian employee Akila Johnson and detective Stephen Davis — are being sued for more than a half-million dollars. D.C.’s Office of the Attorney General (OAG) says the seven children the couple have between them all attended D.C. public charter schools as far back as the 2014–2015 school year. The other lawsuit, which totals almost $300,000, was filed against D.C. public schools teacher Duriel Cobb and his ex-wife, Talaya Cobb. They’re accused of a decade of tuition fraud to avoid paying tuition while their two sons attended the same schools where Duriel Cobb worked. According to the lawsuit, one son attended Miner Elementary School for more than four years, starting in the … [Read more...] about DC sues 2 sets of parents, alleging massive tuition fraud
